I should not have called this person. Little brother, this ti, you made a wrong decision. But he would not have told to call Hyunjae Sung if he knew that my fear resistance skill level decreased. I should have told him.
“How did Yoohyun Han co here?”
“You probably have not heard the news, but the Hayeon Guild leader went to conquer a dungeon. The fire was rely a gas explosion since soone seed to have escaped after forgetting to close a gas valve.”
“Your tongue seems to be light as a feather.”
While Hyunjae Sung was still smiling, I had to wonder where the end of his patience was since he was not a guy used to holding back. However, I could not answer any of the questions. I could not tell him Taewon Song’s skill, and I would be crazy to tell him Yoohyun’s. It was the sa for the magic stone in my chest.
Hyunjae Sung spoke as he stared at after a short silence.
“It can’t be helped.”
My knees bent not out of my own accord. My breath hitched, and everything turned white.
When my shaking vision sohow cleared, I could see my hands on the floor. The sound of my breathing seed too far away to be mine.
“Yoojin Han.”
Hyunjae Sung lowered his body with one knee on the ground. He tousled my head like a dog and made lift my head. Our eyes t while I was still reeling, and his gaze that pretended to be gentle instilled a deep fear in .
“Yoojin, you should be telling the truth.”
His sweet whisper ca like an absolute command. The ends of my fingers clawed the floor.
“Why were you wounded on the chest?”
“The magic stone...”
The magic stone of Diarma. My head cleared a bit once I rembered it. Diarma and the Queen of the rn. I rembered what happened at that ti.
A cursed poisonous dragon large enough to swallow a star and the ruler of waters.
Damn it, I had gone through almost anything despite being an F class. I would not bend to this. While I had lost the benefits of the fear resistance skill, I still had my experiences under my belt.
“My opponent is only an S class.”
I clenched my teeth. I tried to escape from the chains choking , but it was not easy. In fiction, people would sohow break free by sheer will, but reality was bleak.
“Stop resisting and speak.”
Then you would be released. It was a tempting offer.
I could not do anything about the class difference and therefore had no way out. My stats were F class and there was a huge gap between Hyunjae Sung and , and I had no ntal resistance items.
F class was useless. Therefore, only an even higher class could win against a higher class.
“That bastard.”
I used magic through breath-taking pressure. The ntal skill of the Diarma was not directed at him. I could not use it, and it would not be effective unless he accepted it due to class differences. The skill was addressed to .
I took only so parts of the skill effects and refreshed my mory of when Diarma and the Queen faced each other and their imnse presence.
An S class? That was a pond in front of an ocean.
The ocean attacked the pond and and swept us away.
“Uh!”
Damn, I had to be crazy. I should have chosen Diarma before he beca a dragon. I stopped breathing for a mont. I slid down on the ground and looked up at Hyunjae Sung with tears streaking down my face. He looked actually surprised now.
“You’re only an S class. You don’t deserve to see this.”
Why are you smiling? Hyunjae Sung picked up again, and I felt absolutely battered inside. I wanted my pet. Hey, your daddy is dying right now.
-Peep!
“...Hey.”
It really ca. I gently took the baby bird floating in front of in my hands. The soft and warm touch cald my racing heartbeat.
“So, it does have a teleport skill.”
“Stop looking at soone else’s pet.”
-Peep. Peep!
“Hey, thank you for coming to , but it’s too dangerous for you to be out like this.”
It would be difficult for if the little guy appeared during a battle. I should educate him so he would not teleport so easily, but I had no idea how to do it.
The car arrived as I fed the little guy magic stones. The driver imdiately ca out and opened the back door. I wanted to fall asleep the mont I sat but I glared at Hyunjae Sung, who sat next to instead.
“If you have a conscience, please get off.”
“We will be imdiately returning to the guild.”
Hyunjae Sung ignored my words and spoke to the driver. Wait, that guild would not an Haeyeon?
“Shouldn’t you be taking back? Do you want to take a cab?”
“I can’t leave you like this. I’ll protect you for the foreseeable future.”
“You’re the most dangerous person I know!”
-Peep!
“Thank you for overestimating an S class.”
“Please let out anywhere near a lane.”
I did not know whether I could walk, but I would return ho if I needed to crawl. Or if soone would just let make a phone call to Haeyeon.
“I’m unwell, but I just need to stay at ho. Do you have the right to be worried about ?”
“I’ll erase a debt.”
“Two. Let’s bury the hatchet about Noah.”
“You ask too much for a lowly S class.”
Hyunjae Sung’s face creased into a sad face, and I did not care, two debts had to be paid. He seed to know his cris as he accepted the deal soon enough.
The car, fortunately, turned to the raising area. Noah was waiting anxiously at the parking lot.
“Mr. Yoojin!”
Noah rushed towards and held my arm. He then glared at Hyunjae Sung.
“Why does he look worse than before?”
“He did too much as he always does. Let him rest.”
Did he know whose fault it was? Hyunjae Sung looked at my chest before getting back in the car.
“I’m curious avout what you are going to say to your little brother.”
“Hey, what? Are you going to tell him?!”
The bastard disappeared into the car without a reply. What excuse should I make? I was thinking of getting fake skin to hide the wound as I still had a few days before Yoohyun ca out.
* * *
“Are you alright?”
My little brother appeared as soon as I washed up after arriving at ho. Irin had beco tangible from the tattoo and sat perched on my shoulder to look alternatively at Yoohyun and .
Well, little brother, you seed to have used a gate stone.
